M was English musician Robin Scott's brief but very successful new wave/synthpop project in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
“New York - London - Paris - Munich” is M's first album, released in 1979, the title being taken from a line in the chorus of the April 1979 hit single "Pop Muzik," an extended version of which is featured on the album.
Of course, "Pop Muzik" was the only song on M's debut album, New York-London-Paris-Munich, to become a big hit, "Moonlight and Muzak" and "That's the Way the Money Goes" were minor chart entries in the U.K.), but there's actually quite a bit of entertaining music on the record. Granted, the sound of the record is more entertaining than the songwriting, but with its synthesized, danceable beats, big, catchy hooks, and glossy "futuristic" production, it's a terrific new wave artifact.
